The name Bilis has been used for two tropical cyclones in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. The name was submitted by the Philippines and means speed or swiftness.

  • Typhoon Bilis (2000) (T0010, 18W, Isang), caused 71 deaths and $667.5 million in damage in Taiwan and China
  • Tropical Storm Bilis (2006) (T0604, 05W, Florita), caused heavy rain and flooding that killed 672 people in the Philippines, Taiwan, and China

The name was retired by the ESCAP/WMO Typhoon Committee in 2006; it was replaced by Maliksi.
